Outlook signature doesn’t appear in reply

This is one of the most common questions regarding signatures in Microsoft Outlook. The outlook signature doesn’t appear in reply email. Today in this article I will tell you why your signature does not appear while replying to any email. Please read the article very carefully from the beginning to the end.

A signature in any email is used to write at the bottom of the email where the email sender gives his identity including mobile number or other communication methods. It is a general norm to write your name, designation, or other identities at the bottom of an email. If you have already created a signature in Outlook your signature will be added at the bottom of the email message. But while you are replying to an email it will not be added automatically.
